Instead, the real issue about Stupid Cupid is that since you play Stupid Cupid before your opponent acts, your opponent can easily react to his ability's aftermath. You could keep him alive for longer, but you are probably better off letting this zombie go because as mentioned above, Stupid Cupid is used for his ability (which is one-use) and not his stats. Electric Boogaloo can combine Stupid Cupid with Evaporate to destroy a plant instantly or play Secret Agent to create a big threat, but neither of these strategies are recommended as there are cheaper combinations that are equally, or more effective.Īn issue with Stupid Cupid is that he has low health. This greatly improves Z-Mech's survivability against Mega-Grow heroes.

If you are playing as Z-Mech, you can combine Rolling Stone or Weed Spray to destroy any plant you want, especially those that gain strength over time such as Pea Pod, Bean Counter, Snowdrop, Bananasaurus Rex, Doubled Mint, etc. Speaking of Impfinity, he can also make Stupid Cupid reactivate his ability via Firefighter, In-Crypted, or Mixed-Up Gravedigger if he manages to survive a turn. ( Laser Base Alpha and Zombot Sharktronic Sub can substitute Toxic Waste Imp.) This combo is only possible with Impfinity. However, with Toxic Waste Imp, Stupid Cupid's ability becomes very threatening due to any non- Armored or shielded plant being instantly destroyed via his Deadly trait. While he is an Imp zombie, his ability cannot synergize with Imp Commander due to it only being able to target plants. You could also boost it so you can use Rocket Science on it the next turn, but this is very risky. However, if it is on the verge of destruction, it may be worth it. If you do either of these things, you will waste the most effective capability of this zombie.ĭo not use this zombie against Hibernating Beary, because its ability increases its strength instead of draining it. Also, don't target plants that would be destroyed by the initial damage of the ability, unless that plant is a powerful glass cannon like Mushroom Ringleader or Magnifying Grass or if taking control of the field is necessary.

When you play him, don't target plants with no strength at all, like Wall-Nut and Water Chestnut. However, he has a potentially game-changing ability, completely preventing a plant from attacking for the turn he is played. Stupid Cupid is not a very cost-effective 4-brain card in terms of stats, with his low health and mediocre strength.

However, instead of a harp, he has a bow. He is based on Imp's Valenbrainz costume.
